Why does it matter so much what the number is on the clock then that you want the clock to be permanently offset instead of accurate? We can have the clock be simple and make sense and let some people adjust once to the number having changed. You’ll be doing the same things at the same solar time anyway, now with a correct clock attached.
In the practical sense it matters because solar noon is at different time in the same place, but that difference is about 20 minutes, not that much. And it’s different in different places, too, that means it’s going to require a lot more time zones depending on how precise you want to be.
Well, I do have a joke post about that over at bluesky
